Cadence Cranston needs a date. Not just any date, but a date that won’t mind her penchant for blood on the rocks and bat wings. Oh, and fangs… She has awesome fangs.
So Cadence, nighttime DJ and full figured vampire, decides to give online dating a try, but ParanormalMatesSociety.com isn’t just any old online date site. It’s strictly for the shifting community, which is copasetic with Cadence. So she puts up a profile and a picture of herself and jumps into the dating pool, feet first, to find she’s more bored than she was to begin with. Sticking to her own kind of shifter turns out to be kinda droll. Who said she can’t date a demon or a demi-god, for that matter? Or even a werewolf?
Browsing what the site has to offer in the way of “other” shifters, Cadence comes across a profile of a werewolf who’s to die for. Really, he’s that cute. The cute werewolf is Collin Grayson and his profile specifically states that he only wants to date other werewolves. But he’s soooo delish…
How hard can it be to pretend you’re a werewolf?

"Hey, all you Milwauuuukeeee night dwellers! This is CC, for the Nocturnal Journals, on B 105.5 FMMMMMMMM. Your lifeline to the nighttime. Call in and give me your views. Yep, I wanna hear them. The good and the oh-so-bad. Tonight's topic -- online dating. It's the hottest thing in hooking up these days. Do ya think you can really find the match of your dreams in just one click? I wanna hear your story! Gimme a holler at CC-in-the-eve -- that's 224-684-3383. Talk to me, Milwaukee. I'll be waaaaitiiiiing…"
Cadence Cranston clicked off her headset and swung her chair over to her computer while she waited for the commercial break to be over. Her topic tonight was inspired by her real life experiences, and she was curious to know how many people actually might be in the same sinking boat she was in.
The online dating Titanic-like sinking boat, that is.
Yes, Cadence Cranston, night time DJ and vampire, had joined an online date site to troll for guys. Not just any guys though. These men were of the paranormal persuasion and plentiful on Paranormal Mates Society.
Weeeeeeeee doggie -- gazoodles of men to be had in every blessed paranormal category.
It was a new cyber haven, where hooking up with the mate of your dreams was finally a reality. Who knew a place like that even existed for her kind? It sure as hell made finding a date much easier on a vamp. There was no explanation involved if you wanted to hit the O negative for a little pick me up. It was refreshing and required far less hassle than dating a human.
However, this dating thing was becoming her favorite pastime as of late. The e-mail alone was enough to keep her amused for centuries on end. Cadence found herself glued to her computer every chance she got.
It couldn't be healthy.
Nay, it was downright pathetic…
Ooooh, but look! More e-mail.
Yee and haw.
Cheerist, she was sickly addicted to this bullshit e-mail, sadly compelled to check it every free moment she could dredge up.
As if the man of her dreams was going to pop up, and she might miss it because she was fixing her lipstick in the powder room or something.
Clicking on the date site, Cadence perused her inbox and sighed with defeat. It was too bad that most of the men who contacted her were stupidheads.
So many whacktards, so little time.

Dear CBF,
Wow, could I ever sink my teeth into you! Looks like you got plenty to sink into
Dave
Oh-my-God. A herd of cows? What kind of vampire sucked the blood out of cows anymore?
Cadence Cranston shuddered and then, for good measure, she shuddered again.
Fricken' vampire Neanderthal, knuckle dragging, Angus beef, blood sucking dork… God, what had she been thinking when she'd joined this damn online dating site?
She'd been thinking of sharing her Happy Meal instead of eating it alone…
"Oh, the Internet is the hottest thing in dating," her friend Pam had said. "You'll love it. Tons of men to be had," she'd boasted. "They even have a category for big and beautiful immortals and the like. You'll get loads of e-mail and have the social life of Paris Hilton. Trust me."
Cadence stared at the computer screen and flipped it the bird. She'd rather be dead than read one more flippin' loser's e-mail.
Oh, wait, she was dead.
Pam had been right. She did get lots of e-mail. It just so happened that for the most part, the e-mail was from psychotic nuts allowed Internet time for good behavior at the wacky farm. However, she was pleased to note that said psychos on the site rather liked her curves. She wasn't ashamed to call herself big and beautiful, and she was damn proud of the junk in her trunk.
Sighing, she grabbed her mouse and clicked on the reply button. Someone had to tell Dave he was a freak…

Dear fucktard,
Cadence shook her head. That was mean. Probably true, but still, really not very good cyber dating etiquette. Backspacing and deleting the "fucktard," she began again.
Dear Dave,
Thanks for your response to my profile.
However, beef is not what's for dinner.
Good luck in your search,
CBF
There, Cadence thought, buh-bye now.
Oy.
How could it be that there wasn't a single vampire on this site that appealed to her? ParanormalMatesSociety.com was specifically designed for paranormals in today's society. It wasn't easy to be immortal, and finding someone to share that immortality with was harder still.
Yeah, everyone said her lifemate would pop up when she least expected him. However, Cadence was of the mind that until then, she needed to frost her Wheaties and for that, she had to find the Wheaties and some milk.
